For Beer Lovers, Valentine’s Celebration Starts on Sunday

With Valentine’s Day just a few days away I figure it is a good time to give you guys (and I do mean guys) some ideas. I have a couple of beer dinners to tell you about and some chocolate-inspired events to mention as well. Note that two events take place tomorrow (Sunday). Did I miss anything? If you know of any other beer-inspired Valentine’s Day events please leave a comment and share the love.

Sunday, February 12th

The event will feature pairings of a scrumptious variety of Theo Chocolate and your favorite beers from Georgetown Brewing. Macrina Bakery will provide a variety of yummy snacks. Local bluegrass band, Creeping Time will perform. You can feel good about it, too, while indulging your palate, with proceeds going to charity: Autism Speaks, the nation’s largest Autism science and advocacy organization.

ChocoFest is not merely about chocolate. The event involves chocolate, beer, wine, spirits, mead and food. And plenty of it.
